Guest‐Editors Ali Rahim and Hina Jamelle teach graduate Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania Weitzman School of Design and are the co‐founders of Contemporary Architectural Practice (CAP) based in New York and Shanghai. Here they lead us through a brief history of the pros and cons of the architectural digital project of the last 25 years, advocating a return to detailing and the careful juxtaposition of materials, collaboratively working with numerous manufacturers and contractors to create architectures of nested, multiscaled and multivalent seams.
